BJP won all the four seats in Himachal with the blessing of the people. Himachal is ‘karmabhoomi’ of the BJP national president Jagat Prakash Nadda,” said he.
“JP Nadda has been given big responsibility with ministries by the central government; this is a matter of pride for Himachal. We are thankful to Prime Minister Narendra Modi for giving him this responsibility and congratulate Nadda,” he added.
“What Himachal Pradesh has received in the last decade; it has never received before. We four MPs of Lok Sabha and three of Rajya Sabha, all seven of us, together will take Himachal to new heights,” he added. “I am a permanent worker, the roles of a worker keep changing but I will perform diligently in whatever role I get,” said Thakur.
